In Minnesota, are there any laws that say an employer cannot share the truthful reason why an employee was fired? I understand employers may want to avoid slander, etc. But if they gave the employee a cause … are they lawfully allowed to share this with other employees? There was a shocking firing in my workplace. Frankly maybe illegal. Higher ups said they cannot state specifics because of employment law, but I don't trust their word. I just want to know if they are bluffing.
